Cheerleader – Suri Llama Merino Nylon Sock Yarn

Cheer On Your Feet

Meet Cheerleader — a sock yarn spun from the fiber of SWLC Cheerleader, one of our own Suri llamas here on the farm. We asked the mill to start creating sock yarns for us, and they absolutely delivered with this one.

The Animal Behind the Yarn

SWLC Cheerleader is a beloved Suri llama whose fine, lustrous fleece forms the foundation of this blend — bringing natural drape and sheen to every stitch.

Yarn Details

• Fiber: 70% Suri Llama / 15% Merino / 15% Nylon

At 400 yards, one skein is the perfect amount for an average pair of socks — no second skein needed! The nylon adds durability for high-wear areas, the merino brings softness, and the Suri llama gives it a silky, lightweight feel that makes these socks a true treat for your feet.
